Motorists driving the Malahat on Monday should be prepared for snow.
Environment Canada says there’s a possibility of snowfall Monday between Goldstream Provincial Park and Mill Bay as a frontal system approaches with modified arctic air.
Drivers are being reminded they must use winter tires on that stretch of the Trans-Canada Highway between Oct. 1 and March 31.
In a weather statement Sunday morning, Environment Canada said modified arctic air will arrive over the south coast as a ridge of high pressure builds today. A frontal system will arrive over the south coast on Monday.
The front, combined with the modified arctic air, could produce accumulating snow for areas above 200 metres. The front will move out of the region Tuesday morning.
Snowfall is possible between Courtenay and Campbell River, Duncan, Nanaimo and both Nanoose Bay and Fanny Bay, and in Metro Vancouver.
